2. Yes, but remember, Hung lost because the judge was closed-minded.
It's never Hung's fault. Poor Hung. :eyes:

15. Those mushroom tarts look horrible.
I bet the C&B group or the people on this thread could do interesting appetizers for 60 for $350.

21. Dale made gougeres with yogurt.
Gougeres, with cheese as expected, are yummy and cheap. But yogurt?!

I haven't made them in awhile. Maybe I should.

Edited on Wed Sep-05-07 10:00 PM by Ekirh
Didn't last year if you wanted to leave willingly, didn't they let you?

Edit; I see you don't accept his request to leave.. but then get rid of him anyway.

32. I'm kind of disappointed, though.
I wanted Howie's departure to be a full-meltdown, pig-biting, poop-flinging, bitch fest. He kind of reformed at the end. This disappoints me. :(

33. True humility, or just selective editing through the season?
My vote is on editing, but I'm not sorry to see him go.


I did like Anthony Bourdain's first paragraph in his blog, "There was rejoicing in TV-land last night, as designated bad guy Howie whiffed on three pitches and was sent home for good. For many who have posted on this site, offended by his petulance, his obstinacy, the veritable Niagara of sweat that flowed freely from his brow, it was none too soon. But...but... what do we do now? With no bad guy?"

34. Bourdain is pretty funny!
If he ever gets tired of the food thing, he can probably make it as a writer!

I think he's got the writer thing covered. ;-)

37. The judges are battering the chefs more and more. They must be channeling the Hell's Kitchen dude.
Edited on Thu Sep-06-07 04:11 AM by pinniped
It's like a FN inquisition.

Last week, Tre, the executive chef, was sent packing. Following their guidelines, Brian should have gone home.

And that guest judge was a real asshole.
